Chapter 1094: Giant Ape Wild Beast

After traveling for three consecutive days, Ye Yuan and his group finally arrived at the entrance to the second layer.

"In the second layer, the wild beasts belong to me, and the spiritual herbs belong to you." After saying this, Ye Yuan directly entered the second layer.

In the second layer, the wild beasts were already mostly at the Divine King level.

These wild beasts were extremely powerful and thick-skinned; even a single disciple of the Purple Gold Hall might not be a match for them.

Yet Ye Yuan said he would take on all the wild beasts in the second layer!

If it were before, they would have thought Ye Yuan was boasting. How could a Dao Xuan Triple cultivator contend with a Divine King-level wild beast?

But after witnessing his battle with Guo Xu, no one dared to underestimate Ye Yuan anymore.

Even without using that divine sword, Ye Yuan's strength far surpassed most of them.

"It seems he entered this Blood Rain Wilderness not only for the spiritual herbs but also to use the wild beasts here to temper himself," said the Divine Hound King.

"Hmph! In at most half a year, how much can he improve?" Guo Xu said disdainfully.

"I just wonder what method he used to get Lord Xiaoyun to agree. The Blood Rain Wilderness has never been opened to outsiders before. Unexpectedly, an exception was made this time," said the Divine Hound King.

Guo Xu's face darkened, and he said nothing, but followed Ye Yuan's pace.

"Roar!"

A thunderous roar sounded, and a wild beast resembling an ape suddenly burst out, charging straight at Ye Yuan, who was at the front of the group.

Seeing this, Ye Yuan was not alarmed but delighted. He casually drew the Star Moon Sword and prepared to engage in battle.

But just then, a blur shot past him, darting toward the wild beast at even greater speed.

"Slaughter Heaven Sword Domain!"

The Divine King domain opened, and countless sword lights instantly slashed countless wounds on the wild beast.

"Boom!"

Before the wild beast could go berserk, Guo Xu cleanly killed it.

A strike from a Void Xuan expert—how could this ordinary Divine King-level wild beast be a match?

"Clang!"

Guo Xu sheathed his sword, looking extremely graceful.

Ye Yuan's face darkened. "Guo Xu, what do you mean by this?"

Guo Xu, with a composed air, said indifferently, "What do I mean? This Blood Rain Wilderness is the territory of my Holy City. As the senior disciple of the Purple Gold Hall, is there anything wrong with me honing my martial skills here?"

With that, Guo Xu shot Ye Yuan a defiant glance and swaggered off.

His intention was simple: since Ye Yuan wanted to use the wild beasts here to improve his strength, he would not let Ye Yuan improve.

He would directly kill every wild beast they encountered, giving Ye Yuan no chance.

Unless Ye Yuan used that divine sword.

But using the divine sword would not achieve the effect of tempering.

As for whether Ye Yuan would lose his temper, he was even less worried.

With the Divine Hound King here, the two of them and a dog—three Void Xuan experts—could Ye Yuan possibly turn the tables?

Wild beasts at the Divine King level were now the most suitable opponents for Ye Yuan.

Without using a divine artifact, Ye Yuan and a peak Divine King-level wild beast should be evenly matched.

"Roar, roar..."

Suddenly, ear-splitting roars rang out continuously.

The sound was very similar to that of the ape wild beast Guo Xu had just killed.

"Rumble..."

The earth trembled!

In the distance, seven or eight wild beasts came charging over.

Judging by their aura, these eight wild beasts were all at the peak Divine King level!

"Haha, just in time!" Guo Xu laughed loudly, drew his sword, and charged toward the eight ape wild beasts.

As soon as the Sky-Slaying Sword Domain was deployed, Guo Xu was fully confident that he would cut down enemies on all sides.

Unfortunately, he had miscalculated!

The eight ape-like desolate beasts, seeing Guo Xu's aggressive approach, each assumed a very strange posture.

When Guo Xu drew near, the eight desolate beasts suddenly struck with all their might.

Eight streams of primal power converged instantly like cannonballs.

A terrifying wave of energy radiated outward. Guo Xu was about to show off his power, but his expression changed drastically at the sight.

However, it was too late for him to change his move.

"Boom!"

That primal power cannonball directly slammed into his Sky-Slaying Sword Domain, smashing a huge crater into the powerful Divine King domain.

And Guo Xu's body was sent flying backward.

"Pfft!"

Guo Xu hit the ground, and a junior disciple quickly went to support him. He spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Roar, roar..."

The eight ape-like desolate beasts let out earth-shaking roars, looking as if they were celebrating the victory of that strike.

"Damn it! These eight apes actually have such a bizarre combined attack technique; its power is no less than that of a Void Profound expert!" Guo Xu said hatefully.

They were clearly just eight peak Divine King level desolate beasts, yet the combined force just now was so formidable.

Guo Xu had been careless, wanting to kill the desolate beasts quickly before Ye Yuan could, but he ended up suffering a great loss.

At that moment, his blood surged, and he couldn't muster a trace of primal power for a short time!

Those eight ape-like desolate beasts even understood the principle of pressing the advantage. After a brief celebration, they stomped over in pursuit.

"Rumble, rumble..."

Eight ten-zhang tall giant apes charged together, making it feel as if the earth would split apart.

As they ran, the eight giant apes once again assumed that strange posture from before.

They actually wanted to do it again!

Just then, Ye Yuan moved, his figure vanishing instantly from where he stood.

Merging with Heaven and Earth!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Yuan had cut into the midst of the eight giant apes.

He deployed his Pseudo-Divine King domain, and the狂暴 sword qi instantly disrupted the rhythm of the giant apes' combined attack.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

Countless sword qi slashed against the giant apes' bodies, producing the sound of metal clashing.

The bodies of these eight giant apes were comparable to holy artifacts.

Ye Yuan's sword light could not break through their defense for the time being!

Of course, this was mainly because Ye Yuan's cultivation level was insufficient. His sword light had reached the required artistic conception, but he lacked the powerful primal power to support it.

If he had the primal power of a Divine King, he would have killed at least two giant apes by now.

These giant apes clearly hadn't expected that this unremarkable human would catch them off guard.

Ye Yuan's intrusion directly disrupted the giant apes' combined attack. Now they fought individually, and Ye Yuan moved among them with ease.

For a time, the two sides were locked in a stalemate.

Although Ye Yuan's Divine King domain could not break through the giant apes' defense for now, given enough time, he could wear them down.

The eight giant apes howled in frustration, each trying to assume that strange posture.

But Ye Yuan gave them no chance!

Every time they attempted a combined attack, Ye Yuan's countless sword lights would concentrate on one giant ape.

No matter how weak his Divine King domain was, if it focused on a single target, that ape couldn't withstand it.

And for their combined attack, if even one ape failed to keep up, it would be broken directly.

Guo Xu watched this scene, his expression dark.

He hadn't expected to capsize in a ditch.
